Nursing Clinical Information System

Nursing Clinical Information System

Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS)
A Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS) is a specialized type of healthcare information system tailored to meet the unique needs of nursing practice. It incorporates the principles of nursing informatics to streamline information management and improve the quality of care delivery.
Critical attributes of NCIS include:

Patient-centered Care

Patient-centered Care

Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

Clinical Trials

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are prospective experimental studies conducted on humans to determine the safety and efficacy of treatments, drugs, diet methods, and medical devices. Using statistics in clinical trials enables researchers to derive reasonable and accurate conclusions from the collected data, allowing them to make wise decisions in uncertain situations. In medical research, statistical methods are crucial for preventing errors and bias.
There are four phases in a clinical trial. A phase one...

Methods of Documentation VI: Case Management Model

Methods of Documentation VI: Case Management Model

The case management model is a multidisciplinary approach that involves healthcare professionals from diverse disciplines, such as physicians, nurses, therapists, social workers, and pharmacists, working collaboratively to address the various needs of patients. Each healthcare professional brings unique expertise and perspectives, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of the patient's condition and tailoring treatment plans accordingly.
For example, a patient with a chronic illness...

Critical Thinking II

Critical Thinking II

Critical thinking is a cognitive process with several attributes. The attributes of critical thinking include the following:

Methods of Documentation V: CBE

Methods of Documentation V: CBE

Charting by Exception, or CBE, is a method of documentation used in healthcare, particularly in nursing, that focuses on documenting only significant or abnormal findings rather than recording every detail. This approach aims to streamline the documentation process, improve efficiency, and ensure that healthcare providers can quickly identify deviations from normalcy in patient assessments.
In CBE, healthcare professionals establish predefined standards of practice that define what constitutes...

Area of Science:

Philosophy of Health
Medical Ethics
Clinical Practice Research

Background:

The compatibility of clinical wisdom and evidence-based medicine (EBM) is a long-standing debate.
Some scholars posit a division between these knowledge types, with EBM potentially undermining clinical wisdom.

Purpose of the Study:

To critically evaluate the distinction between clinical wisdom and EBM.
To argue for the complementary nature of clinical wisdom and EBM.

Main Methods:

Philosophical analysis of the concepts of clinical wisdom and EBM.
Conceptual revision of the basis for differentiating clinical knowledge.

Main Results:

The distinction between EBM and clinical wisdom is poorly defined and methodologically unsupported.
The crucial difference lies in the dependability of knowledge, not its source.
Clinical wisdom and EBM are necessarily complementary.

Conclusions:

Reconceptualizing the difference between EBM and clinical wisdom as based on dependability, rather than source, resolves the perceived conflict.
Recognizing their complementary relationship has significant implications for clinical practice, medical education, and health policy.
